The Beauty of Bamboo "Violence"
Bamboo Pace, Xiao Yu
Locally, there is a traditional relationship between Bamboo and Art. How this one material can serve many different outcomes. It is not only an abundant resource, but its diversity can be summarized as a material with integrity, tension and conflict.
Creative with "Violence"
Tiger with Arrows by Guoqiang Ciao
Currently, we believe many contemporary Chinese artists in 798 are trying to achieve the beauty of violence , and that messages lends itself to become the theme of our prototypes.
Chinese Traditional Material
Traditional Handmade Machine, Bamboo Textile
The evolving relationship with Bamboo has led to the creation of Bamboo soft materials which retains many benefits from its original state. Even when broken down and manipulated, Bamboo continues to hold cooling properties and be antibacterial.
